Thanks dear Lada for sharing the joy of celebrating Intl Women’s day! Perhaps the US would recognize women someday and join the rest of the world, alas our patriarchal “leaders” are too busy waging war with the world. Apparently they have forgotten the sacred feminine within. đ Some flowers for you!! â€

Ah the politics of love. đ
There are lots of beautiful holidays in the world. March 8 is one of my personal favorites. To me itâs associated with spring, smiles, and the intoxicating fragrance of tulips, delicate bells of the lily of the valley and sweetness of the mimosa flowers.
On March 8 the world celebrates the International Womenâs Day. This holiday started over 100 years ago in Russia as a celebration of womenâs rights and anti-war movement. Years later it became popular the world over as a holiday for women of all ages, when mothers, wives and daughters can kick back and allow themselves to be treated as pampered goddesses, letting men do the chores, bring them flowers, lavish them with massages and tickets to sold-out shows.
Find out how this holiday is celebrated in Russia and beyond from my eternally popular piece on Lada Ray Blog, combining history, reflections, memories and rare images: March 8âŠ
